Support level: Community

What is Termix​

Termix is a clientless web-based server management platform with SSH terminal, tunneling, and file editing capabilities.

-- https://docs.termix.site/

Preparation​

The following placeholders are used in this guide:

  • termix.company is the FQDN of the Termix installation.
  • authentik.company is the FQDN of the authentik installation.
note

This documentation lists only the settings that you need to change from their default values. Be aware that any changes other than those explicitly mentioned in this guide could cause issues accessing your application.

authentik configuration​

To support the integration of Termix with authentik, you need to create an application/provider pair in authentik.

  1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.

  2. Navigate to Applications > Applications and click Create with Provider to create an application and provider pair. (Alternatively you can first create a provider separately, then create the application and connect it with the provider.)

    • Application: provide a descriptive name, an optional group for the type of application, the policy engine mode, and optional UI settings.
    • Choose a Provider type: select OAuth2/OpenID Connect as the provider type.
    • Configure the Provider: provide a name (or accept the auto-provided name), the authorization flow to use for this provider, and the following required configurations.
      • Note the Client ID, Client Secret, and slug values because they will be required later.
      • Set a Strict redirect URI to https://termix.company/users/oidc/callback.
      • Select any available signing key.
    • Configure Bindings (optional): you can create a binding (policy, group, or user) to manage the listing and access to applications on a user's My applications page.

  3. Click Submit to save the new application and provider.

Termix configuration​

  1. Log in to Termix as an administrator.
  2. Click your admin username in the bottom-left corner and open the Admin Settings interface.
  3. Navigate to the OIDC tab.
  4. Set the following required settings:
    • Client ID: Client ID from authentik
    • Client Secret: Client secret from authentik
    • Authorization URL: https://authentik.company/application/o/authorize/
    • Issuer URL: https://authentik.company/application/o/<application_slug>/
    • Token URL: https://authentik.company/application/o/token/
  5. Click Save Configuration.

Configuration verification​

To verify that authentik is correctly integrated with Termix, first log out of your Termix account. From the login screen, select External and then choose Login with External Provider. You should be redirected to your authentik instance, and after successfully authenticating, the system will return you to Termix where you will be logged in automatically.
